Student Services

New Resident Services

OLS helps students secure basic living services, such as a cell phone plan, a car, insurance, a bank account, etc. It can be difficult to navigate the setup of a new life here in America.
Tasks
such as finding a homestay family, purchasing a car and auto insurance, using public transportation, opening a bank account, or obtaining a cell phone can all seem overwhelming in a new place
and
using a new language. We can help you through all of these processes and help you get settled here easily and comfortably.

Since you will be spending a lot of time at Optimus, you will want to know what shopping and restaurant options your have nearby. We will take you on a tour to get you familiar
with
what is in the area, and then we will help you with your first grocery shopping trip.

Airport Pickup

On your application, you can mark if you would like us to pick you up at the airport when you arrive in the U.S. We will ask for your travel information and have somebody waiting
for you when you arrive.

Homestay

If you have not already made arrangements to stay with a friend or family member while you are studying in the U.S., you can mark on your application that you would like to sign up
for the Homestay program. We will match you with an American family living close to Optimus. You will be able to experience more of the American culture by living with them.

Health Insurance

Although Optimus does not require health insurance, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you maintain health insurance while in the U.S. It is recommended that you obtain health insurance
from your home country because it will be cheaper. However, if you would like to sign up for a health insurance plan once you are here, we can help you with that process.
